Catalysts with quantum sensors and catalysts system with the same

Abstract

A catalyst system includes a nanostructured textile catalyst and a 2D protective layer with room temperature spin defects disposed on the nanostructured textile catalyst and configured to monitor dissolution of the nanostructured textile catalyst. The 2D protective layer can be a 2D hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) layer with negatively charged boron vacancies. The catalyst system can also include a laser configured to illuminate the room temperature spin defects, a microwave source configured to irradiate the room temperature spin defects with microwaves, and a photoluminescent light detector configured to detect and measure photoluminescent light emitted from the room temperature spin defects such that dissolution of the nanostructured textile catalyst is monitored.
